Hi,
I’m running Fedora 36 KDE X11 with a Nvidia graphics card and the Nvidia driver (and an external display)
colord
and colord-libs
packages are installed via dnf.
I’ve created an icc color profile for my display via DisplayCal GitHub - eoyilmaz/displaycal-py3 at develop and a Calibrite Color checker. Once added in Settings - > Color Corrections → Profiles it was added to the display under devices (Acer XV322QK KV) and can be selected and works well. (They are not currently installed system wide, so there’s nothing in /var/lib/colord/icc though there used to be as I have tried that to see whether it would make a difference for this issue and it didn’t seem to)
It is never applied successfully upon reboot/relog. It shows as selected under Color corrections but something has applied something else on top or the selection has no bearing on the current profile applied. If I manually select the default profile for the display then the colors on the screen do not change (indicating that on startup the default profile is in effect if not selected), once I again select my profile it is successfully applied.
if I do sudo journalctl -b | grep 'colord'
after a reboot there’s:

Which seems problematic but perhaps not critically so (I can’t tell from those messages what is causing them or if they have to do with my problem)
(There are several installed profiles under my user from experimentation but that doesn’t seem to matter for the issue at thand)
I tried to login into a Wayland session instead and there under Settings → Color Corrections → Devices if I add a profile like one of the defaults, the Blue test for instance, it can be selected but it does not appear applied. Same for any profile selected.
Any suggestions?
